Description
- The present invention relates to model locomotive, and in particular to a model locomotive with vapor-smoking and furnace-firing-and-lighting effects, in that by the vapor generator and blower installed within the inner body of the locomotive, the inner body will generate smoke continuously and the pressure will be accumulated. Furthermore, a plurality of lighting elements installed at a front wall and a rear wall of the inner body for viewing an interior of the inner body and a plurality of lighting elements being installed at the interior of the inner body, an outer side of the rear wall of the inner body and an interior of an opening of a combustion chamber cause that the inner body will have the effects of firing and lighting. When the control valves installed at the smoking tubes of the inner body synchronously and rapidly open and close the wind electromagnetic switch installed in the wind tube between the inner body and the blower, different smoking tubes will smoke rapidly and synchronously; and the plurality of lighting elements installed at the interior of the inner body, an outer side of the rear wall of the inner body and an interior of an opening of a combustion chamber flash, the model locomotive will present visual and hearing effects of smoking, and effects of firing and lighting in stopping or running.
- Model trains may be static and dynamic. A static model locomotive is used for decoration, while a dynamic model locomotive may present dynamic effects. Prior model locomotives cannot smoke, while for improving types, the model locomotives could smoke by adding oil therein. However, they cannot consist for a longer time and the smoke is harmful to human bodies. Therefore, they cannot generate virtual reality effects of smoking, firing and lighting and also cannot match the requirements of environment protection, sanitation and safety. Furthermore for known smoking effect presented on prior model locomotive, a fan is used to control the volume of smoking by wind pressure from the wind speed switch of the fan. However, the time different of the volume of the wind from the fan between the wind pressure accumulation and releasing, the smoking of the model locomotive can be reacted simultaneously so as to affect the virtual reality effect of the model locomotive and to cause the non-synchronization of the actions.
- Furthermore for known model locomotives, they cannot provide the effects of firing and lighting so that the model locomotive cannot provide the visual and hearing effects of virtual reality.
- Therefore, there is an eager demand for a novel model locomotive which can provide vapor-smoking and furnace-firing-and-lighting effects so as to increase the industrial value and the value for storage.
- To improve above mentioned defects, the present invention provides a model locomotive with vapor-smoking and furnace-firing-and-lighting effects. The objects of the present invention are that: providing a model locomotive which present effects of synchronously smoking, firing and lighting as the locomotive stops or runs so as to increase the industrial value of the model locomotive and value in storage; providing a model locomotive which generating vapor smoking effect while it is harmless to human bodies and is safe and non-poisonous to environment; furthermore, providing a model locomotive which has the effect of firing and lighting in the inner body of the locomotive so as to increase the industrial value and the value in storage.
- To achieve object, the present invention provides a model locomotive with vapor-smoking and furnace-firing-and-lighting effects comprising: an outer body; a hollow inner body installed within the outer body for installing liquid of specific volume (the liquid within the inner body is one of water, water liquid added with oil.); a funnel smoking tube installed at a front wall of the inner body; a steam whistle smoking tube, a safety valve smoking tube and a generator smoking tube installed at an upper wall of the inner body; an opening of each smoking tube is installed with a control valve for controlling smoking; a wind inlet tube for a blower installed at a rear wall of the inner body; a section of the wind inlet tube between the inner body and the blower is installed with an electromagnetic switch for controlling volume of wind; a vapor generator, an air-exhausting and water-draining tube for a cylinder, and a water level switch being installed at a lower wall of the inner body; and a plurality of lighting elements installed at a front wall and a rear wall of the inner body for viewing an interior of the inner body; a plurality of lighting elements being installed at the interior of the inner body, an outer side of the rear wall of the inner body and an interior of an opening of a combustion chamber.
- By the vapor generator and blower installed within the inner body, the inner body will generate smoke continuously and the pressure will be accumulated. When the control valves installed at the smoking tubes of the inner body with the synchronous and rapidly opening and closing action of the wind electromagnetic switch installed in the wind tube between the inner body and the blower, different smoking tubes will smoke rapidly and synchronously. As a result, the model locomotive will present visual and hearing effects of smoking when the locomotive stops or runs. Furthermore, a plurality of lighting elements installed at a front wall and a rear wall of the inner body for viewing an interior of the inner body and a plurality of lighting elements being installed at the interior of the inner body, an outer side of the rear wall of the inner body and an interior of an opening of a combustion chamber cause that the inner body will have the effects of firing and lighting.

One end of the cylinder air-exhausting and water-drainingtube 26 extends into the interior of theinner body 2 with a predetermined height and another end thereof is out of theinner body 2. As adding liquid 6 is over a level of an inner opening of the cylinder air-exhausting andwater draining tube 26, surplus liquid will enters into the cylinder air-exhausting and water-drainingtube 26 and then is drained out of theinner body 2. Meanwhile, as adding liquid is over a level of an outer opening of the cylinder air-exhausting and water-drainingtube 26, it is controlled by acontrol valve 261 for controlling smoke of the cylinder air-exhausting and water-drainingtube 26. The actuation of thecontrol valve 261 is controlled by external power sources. - In practical usages, the actuations of the
control valve - Furthermore, the interior of the
inner body 2 of the model locomotive 1 is installed with a plurality of lighting elements 7, and the front wall of theinner body 2 is installed with a plurality oftransparent smoking tubes 71 for viewing the interior of theinner body 2. A rear wall of theinner body 2 is installed with a plurality oftransparent smoking tubes 8 for viewing the interior of theinner body 2.
